Servers upgraded to Debian 11 (bullseye) #debian

🕐︎ - 2021-08-21

Last weekend Debian released version 11 (bullseye).

After the release I upgraded my two small VPS's, which was smooth as can be - they only run bind and Postfix, plus one of them runs Jitsi.

I postponed the upgrade of my main/home server until today, a week later.

Upgrading was reasonably smooth this time, so far I have only had these problems:

I had to build all my Haskell-based websites again with cabal new-build and adjust the paths to the binaries.

Interestingly, this time around none of my Perl based websites broke.

How to in excruciating detail…

To avoid spam many websites make you fill out a CAPTCHA, or log in via an account at a corporation such as Twitter, Facebook, Google or even Microsoft GitHub.

I have chosen to use a more old school method of spam prevention.
